Focus isn’t the challenge, directing it is. Is that true for you too? Where does your focus go? 💭

Le défi, ce n’est pas de se concentrer, mais de diriger sa concentration. Est-ce vrai pour toi ? 💭

La concentration n'est pas le problème. C'est la diriger qui l'est. Focus isn't the challenge. Directing it is. Forward Focused ADHD Coaching.

Pssst.. incase you need a reminder.

Take that break. Go for a walk. Eat some food. Drink your water. Have a stretch. Read some of your book. Go do something for you.

Tu n'as pas à prouver ta value pour tes reposer. You don't have to earn rest by being productive.

Boundaries Setting can sound terrifying. 🫣 If you grew up people-pleasing or over-functioning, setting boundaries can feel selfish. BUT boundaries aren’t about shutting people out, they’re about staying connected to yourself while staying connected to others.

There’s a lot of buzz about AI stepping into therapy, coaching, and self-help. As a new ADHD coach, I’ve been thinking about what that means 🤔, especially for neurodivergent folks.

I’m not here to tell you what to think, just to get you thinking.

Do you use AI for therapy?

October is ADHD Awareness Month 💚
As someone late diagnosed, I know how life-changing awareness can be. It’s not about fixing us—it’s about support, validation, and community. You’re not broken. You’re not alone. 💚 #ADHDAwarenessMonth #NeurodivergentVoices #adhd #YouAreNotAlone #adhdcoach

There's a lot of shame going around right now. You are not broken. You don't need fixing. We need support, understanding, acceptance and advocacy 💚

Are you feeling tired but you're focusing on what you didn't accomplish today? It's not a personal flaw to not complete it. We all transfer tasks to the next day. Sleep however is needed for attention, mood, stress management, executive function and more! You don't earn sleep, you deserve it. #ADHD

Rest isn’t laziness — it’s a need. For ADHD brains, rest can look different and that's okay. It’s whatever helps your nervous system settle and gives you a recharge without stressing out your brain. You don’t have to earn rest or figure it out alone. 💚

📣 New Blog Post!

So many moms have told me “I didn’t realize I had ADHD until I became a parent.” Sound familiar? It happened to me too.

📸 Nerd at work. Mid-blog, buried in research, books, and half-drunk coffee.

I don’t post ADHD memes—not because I hate fun, but because too many are misleading. Feeling seen is great. Being misinformed isn’t. I’d rather give you solid, science-backed support. #ADHDCoach #EvidenceBasedSupport #Blog

If you see me eating eggs for the 900th time—mind your business 😂 ADHD brains need protein in the morning. It helps with focus, mood, and energy. Eggs, shakes, cold nuggets—it doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to work. Feed your brain. #ADHD #NeurodivergentLife #nojudgementzone #onlysupport

✨ Pulled in a million directions? You still matter. ✨
That water break, that breath, that 5-min reset? It’s not selfish — it’s strategy.
ADHD brains forget us — but rest is productive, breaks are brain boosts, and you’re worth the care 💚

I have a lot of opinions about what I believe is an unnecessary add on. Can we also point out its traditional "female responsibility" roots? Talk about adding to the mental load. Planning a wedding? Let's add on more. Having a Baby? Let's add on more. Disabled? No exceptions. Norm change please! 🙌🏼

Being called “strong” can feel dismissive. We don’t always want praise—we want to be seen. Tired is valid. Vulnerable is valid. You don’t have to be resilient every day to be worthy. 💚
Follow for real talk, support & space to just be. #ADHD #LowonSpoons #neurodivergent #tired #adhder #adhdcoach

ADHD can be hard — and being hard on yourself makes it harder. That inner critic might feel like it's helping, but it's really just draining your energy. What if your inner voice was your teammate instead of your drill sergeant? Self-compassion isn’t a luxury — it’s essential.

#ADHD #ADHDAwareness

Your inner voice should be your biggest supporter, not your Harshest Critic. Forward Focused ADHD Coaching.

It's a great one! Mine is "Don't put it down, put it away!" 🎶 which I sing repeatedly on a loop until I have in fact put it away, and not put it down. 😁
